Newforma Add-in for Autodesk Revit

The Newforma® Add-in for Autodesk® Revit® allows you to get more out of an investment in BIM by bringing project information management (PIM) capabilities into the Autodesk Revit suite of building information modeling (BIM) applications.

The Newforma Add-in for Revit streamlines the following project information management processes:

Room and spatial data management

Connect room and space planning spreadsheets with live Revit models to enable programming and Revit modeling staff to work asynchronously on a coordinated project room and space program.

Punch list integration

Connect space and system elements in the model with the Spatial Index activity center in Newforma Project Center to provide a consistent, unambiguous framework for the location of punch list and site observation items throughout the facility.

Document control and revision management

Connect sheet planning worksheets with the live Revit models to manage the revision and distribution of all record document deliverables derived from the model.

Resolution of design problems

Link action items and markups created in Newforma Project Center to building elements in Revit to track and more efficiently resolve design challenges with other disciplines.

Discoverable design-process audit trail

A by-product of a Newforma-enabled BIM process is a discoverable project audit trail that links building elements in Revit to a decision trail of information, emails and documents that support the final outcome.
